I talk to anything, whether it be dead or alive! With only a 3 year old for company, sometimes it's a must! 
I don't know about Sally the psychic Geoff. I'll have to look her up!
Pam, that would be great. I always associated overwintering with greenhouses (my newbie status showing through), which I don't have. Here, it's either in the ground outside, in a container outside, or in a pot inside, but if cuttings work on a windowsill, I have room for them!
